Product filter

The Product filter can be particularly useful to optimize screening efforts and compound procurement. With the Product filter you can narrow down your search space to the compounds that has at least one associated product that satisfies your criteria in terms of stock availability, delivery time, price, small order fee, purity, catalog type, favoured supplier, etc.

When to use

The Product filter can be used when you are working on projects that have specific criteria in terms of what products can be ordered at the end of the searching/screening process and which ones should be filtered out. For example, you might only want to focus on compounds that can be delivered to you in 2 weeks and you need at least 100 mg for your experiments. This is something you can easily set in the Product filter to get rid of irrelevant entries at the earliest possible stage. This will spare you time and will prevent you to use all your credits for more expensive tools. Subsets filtered by certain price and purity criteria might be particularly useful for expansion of in-house compound decks.

How to use

Options

Catalog options

Include the following catalogs

In this box you can set the specific chemical supplier catalogs you would like to be included in the screening. By default, all catalogs are selected. To remove or add all catalogs you can click on the “Remove all” and “Add all” links, respectively. To remove/add particular catalogs you can click on the “-” and “+” signs next to the catalogs. All catalogs on the left-hand side will be included in the screen, all catalogs on the right-hand side will be filtered out.

Include only the following catalog types

Here you can specify what catalog types you allow. You can select “Building block”, “Screening” and “Natural” types.

Quality

Minimum required purity

Here you can set the lowest allowed purity. Screening compounds typically vary between 90-95%, most building blocks are 95%+, natural compounds are typically below 90%.
